basher brash Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Would be a fantastic season if we reach the spfl trophy final , reached the next round of the Scottish cup and finish in 4th spot however I think we will finish either 5th or 6th place knocked out by Dundee however I fancy a wee cup upset against Motherwell 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roverthemoon Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 MacDonald appears to be making up for lost time. Said nothing for months on end after DG, now in the papers every week. Suspect the journalists have realised all they have to do is phone him up and they’ll get a ramble and a headline. Still don’t see any real benefit of talking about the buyout until it’s over the line but it at least sounds positive - although wasn’t it end of March it was hinted it’d be concluded rather than end of season? Still can’t understand why anyone would want to hand Sim £3m for the club but perhaps it’s loose change to them. I’m excited for the Motherwell game. They are on a very bad run so think we can have a right go at them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like an extension of the previous interview in the FFP given that it refers to the Motherwell game as Next Month and the Linlithgow game as being on the Tuesday. They've probably kept some information back to sell editions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 The FFP has been dire for Rovers coverage since Matt Elder left. The Courier is heading down a similar road as well. The guy who replaced Alan Temple is useless. There's been a couple of instances recently where there's not even been an article about us on the day of a match. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blink Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Does anyone remember the club selling shares to fans in some sort of fundraising scheme around 2002? I have a framed piece of paper back at my parents place that says I own 50 ordinary shares in Raith Rovers (can't remember the exact company name) but I have never had any correspondence from the club as a "shareholder". I always assumed they were some sort of gimmick, like buying a tiny plot of land to become a "Lord". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers_Lad Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 (edited) Yep,I purchased shares around that time.Basically a donation as shares were and are worth diddly squat Shares were purchased in the Raith Rovers holding company Edited February 3 by Rovers_Lad 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
